Dealing with a narcissistic parent is very different than dealing with a narcissistic partner, primarily because of the nature of the relationship and secondly, because of the time duration that you spend with a narcissistic parent.
Ever felt like you're constantly walking on eggshells around a narcissistic parent? You're not alone. In this eye-opening episode of 'Heal from within after Narcissistic Abuse with Danish', Danish Bashir, a seasoned Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Professional and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, shares practical advice on dealing with a narcissistic parent. Danish starts by discussing how these parents can deeply control and manipulate their children, making it incredibly challenging to break free.
He explains the concept of enmeshment and why it feels like you're trapped in their grip. But don't lose hope – Danish outlines four smart strategies to regain control and start healing. First, he talks about creating emotional space by becoming aware of what's really happening. This means recognizing the emotional traps and distorted beliefs that have been ingrained in you since childhood.
Next, he dives into breaking the 'weapons' narcissistic parents use, like guilt and obligation, to keep you under their thumb. By identifying these tactics, you can start to dismantle their power over you. The third strategy focuses on achieving independence in every aspect of your life – financially, emotionally, and physically. Independence is key to breaking free from their control. Finally, Danish offers tips on selective responding or conditioning their behavior if you can't completely cut ties.
By only responding to positive behavior and ignoring the negative, you can protect yourself and regain some control. This episode is packed with practical advice and insights that can help you navigate the complex relationship with a narcissistic parent. Tune in to learn how to take your power back and start your journey toward healing.
